In their own words
XSplit Broadcaster
XSplit Broadcaster is a Windows application for creating and controlling scenes for live streams, recordings, podcasts, presentations, and virtual-camera workflows. It supports multiple audio tracks, cue points, and recording different scenes at the same time. Streams can use native platform plugins or Custom RTMP, and simultaneous broadcasts to multiple services are a Premium feature. Remote guests can be brought into productions through Team, Zoom, and NDI. Broadcaster can remove, replace, or blur a webcam background without a green screen, and supports NVIDIA NVENC encoding, including AV1. Users can extend it with macros, custom scripts, the XJS framework, and API integrations. The free plan supports streaming up to 720p without a watermark, but adds a watermark above that resolution; it allows up to four scenes and excludes simultaneous multistreaming. Monthly costs $14.99 a month, Yearly costs $59.99 a year, and Lifetime is listed at $199.99 a month. The product page lists Windows 10 64-bit, 8 GB RAM, and 250 MB available storage as minimum requirements. It is not a browser-based studio.
